Edith
As the temperature begins to drop again, we got a plea to help a heartworm positive and “extremely emaciated” senior hound that found herself at a rural animal control with little to no protection from the elements Worried about how she’d fair with no body fat to keep her warm, it didn’t take long to decide that she was about to take a roadtrip! Everyone, meet Edith We knew she’d be thin, but she’s shockingly so in person. Truly skin and bones. Easily a girl that should be 45-50 pounds, Edith weighs in at barely 34 pounds. She arrived covered in grime, ticks, feces, and open wounds but her tail never once stopped wagging We don’t deserve dogs!!! Edie’s got a long road ahead but we cannot wait to give her the serious TLC that she so deserves. She’s going to know love, warmth, and safety for what is likely the first time in her life, or at least in a very long time. She’s never going to miss another meal or want for anything ever again. Welcome to the Swamp, Edie. We are so happy to have you. Edith is looking for a foster home to recover in! Please reach out for more info.
